New VR6

[bboyskidz]

Thanks to Golf Loon, who happened to be at this workshop thisafternoon as I was cruising past, I now have those new internal parts and it's all back together.

Once again, Golf Loon saves the day.

I have also spent the afternoon cleaning and polishing. I tell you what, the new polish I got today is FANTASTIC!

I will have to update this later when I get some new photos, but this scuff mark on the middle of the two doors is virtually non existant now:

Everything from Vacuum, leather cleaner, glass cleaner, amourall and good olf fashioned car wash had been over this vehicle today and it's looking a million bucks.

I want to go out tonight and take some nice shots of it, then some more in the daylight tomorrow. Will update the new shots when I do.


Also looking at some aftermarket guages, anyone have any suggestions??

I like the look of these:

Although it looks like the LCD markings are round the wrong way for an aussie car, but then it could just be me. Anyone in Aus that has a decent range?

that is damn hot! i am so jealous now... i really have to get my wheels on soon... only $200 left! (and 3 weeks till pay day... )

i say don't bother with those gauges tho... they are in mph instead of km/h as well... if you get stuff off ebay, it is better to get it from the uk/europe as it is more likely to fit - some parts you should be fine with though but steer clear of dashboard parts and headlights from the US.

On another note, where is this factory of Golf Loon's? I might need to take a drive out there one weekend...

Yeah I did notice the MPH part if the guage, thats why I'm looking for something similar.

I'm assuming there is two little lights that are supposed to light up the instruments at night? One on the speedo one on the tacho?

Seems I only have one on the speedo which means you can't see the other side so well, not that seeing the tacho is a concern, but it would be nice to be able to see the fuel guage

hey hawk.

I have white dials in my VR6. They are in kmph up to 260. The look good. but at night they dont illuminate. Its just the dash light shinning on them.

Check out www.awesome-gti.co.uk. The one that have is sweet.



Unfortunatly they arnt white, or in kmph but the illumination is sweet.

I wouldnt mind getting somt like these but in white.

The DDI ones look really good, but yeah, shame they're in MPH.

There should be some real nice black backlight ones from ebay.com but postage is the killer with that seller.

Snapped a few new photos last night while at Homebush:

Nice dude I always like the black looks really good

[bboyskidz]

yeeeaaah bro that is so sweet. i am so freakin jealous. i am really considering doing the same thing as rayray086.

the only difference between the way that is and the way i want mine is the foggies on the front. i want black ones of those too
